I got a Sportline at Walmart for about $4 or $5. It's very basic, but does the job.

For history, in Jan/Feb I'd have days ranging from 300 (yes 300!) to 8000. In March I decided to do 10k/day. Ended up with 444,010 Steps = 199.36 Miles = 15,223 calories. A hairs breadth from breaking 200 miles for the month.
For April my goal is 10k+/day and to try to break 200 miles and 450k steps.

Date: 4/1 - 10,339 Steps = 4.64 Miles = 367 calories
Date: 4/2 - 11,510 Steps = 5.08 Miles = 397 calories
Date: 4/3 - 17,729 Steps = 8.17 Miles = 649 calories
Date: 4/4 - 11,840 Steps = 5.28 Miles = 404 calories

For the month: 51,418 Steps = 23.17 Miles = 1,817 calories
I'm using the accelerometer on my iPod nano for the numbers.
